Hi-Key Controlled over-exposure

Comments & critiques welcome. One more controlled over-exposure. This

on required a little more work, as he was sitting on my husband's lap

& his hairy old arm did not blow out in the right lower corner.

Usually I would have the holders hands covered a white sheet. But

this one is wild! He just grabbed him & we went with what I got! :)

Aww. This makes me smile. Nice work. :)

Super job Jayme, humorous and sweet in the same photo. 6/6

Thanks for the nice comments. He's such a handful, just getting one image is a chore right now. He loves to run!

Jayme, Another superb image!

Great job! Love those eyes and "spiked" hair...

Excellent composition, he looks pretty serious too.

Serious about "eating" the rattle! :) Must have been close to lunch!

Kids are just the most expressive aren't they? Nice hi-key image Jayme, and those eyes really come out.

;) very nice one. I love his face expression especially the eyes. Lovely shot, good high-key. Thanks for your comment on my photo. DDD

You definitely have the hi-key stuff down pat... Another awesome shot!

Best of your recent shots Jayme. Details are amazing.

Thanks All. He is a cutie! All four of our grandsons have amazing eyes! It figures, they're boys! :)

Jayme, this is adorable! You have a knack for kid photography.

Not much more to say just simply a great capture, timing, expression, and editing. This is great work. "I guess I did say more" Well done and thanks for sharing.

Thanks Jack, Kim & David. He's a real mess! He makes me laugh all the time! We call him "the little Animal" :)

Hi Jayme, I've nothing technical to say. I just wanted to say I absolutely love this picture. The kids must be lining up outside your studio doors.

Excellent work! I love your approach to the high-key stuff. He looks like he's totally trying to figure out what that camera-thingy is! :-)

This is a fun shot, Jayme. :) He looks kinda like you've caught him doing something he knows is odd and thought no one could see him doing. Like when you see older kids sucking their thumbs or whatever.

 

The high-key is handled well; the face has retained detail and the eyes are good. Although, speaking of the eyes, the catchlights make it look as though his pupils are oval! It's not bad in large view, but small it's kinda strange. ;) Then again, it makes you look twice and that's often good.

What a delightful shot, Jayme :) He certainly looks like little ball of energy! ;) Superb high-key work...

Best regards from Kenya,

Thanks All. I thought he looked like he was chewing on a turkey leg. It's a Frog rattle. He loves to eat.

 

Mark- the catch lights are questionable, I like them, some don't. Because of the way the lighting set up is, they're going to be there. I could remove one in PS. Maybe next time I will, see what kind of response I get :)

nice candid shot. lovely child and good B&W picture.

From my love of great photography to yours, this is great photography.

Thanks Howard, I love it when you stop by!!!!

Thanks Massimo
